FIAT TOPILINO ‘LITTLEMOUSE’ IN ITALIAN CROSSES THE POND AND BECOMES A RAT POWERED ‘B-GASSER’ .

WILLYS IMPROVED THE STYLING WITH SOME ADOPTED FORD IDEAS, BUT IT TOOK MANY, MANY YEARS TO LIVE UP TO THAT ‘SPEEDWAY’ TITLE.

IN 1939, WILLYS HAD SOME DISTINCTIVE ‘SLIPSTREAM’ STYLING APPLIED TO A MODEL THEY CALLED ‘SPEEDWAY’ WITH 62hp, EVEN AT 2200lbs. NOT A THRILLER.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE’S ARE THE COMING THING AND OF COURSE THEY WILL HAVE SOME UTILITY

- JUST NOT ‘GASSER’ MATERIAL.
